frankensteins··on World Cup Picture Puzzle Game
I'm very addicted to the simple game https://18words.com. Don't remember how many hours were lost in this game.

It inspired me to create a version using the pictures of players from both nations for the world cup final.

Today is the world cup final. Let's see who will win.

frankensteins··on Real-time LLM Inference on Standard GPUs: 3k tokens/s per request
I have a naive question here - first, the token speed is very impressive. but why this is the highlight? I would prefer the actual performance.
frankensteins··on Ingredient Score
This is an open source chrome extension to evaluate ingredient on Amazon, Kroger and other online stores using LLAM3.2

BYOK - You can improve the evaluation using your own LLM API key.

You can host it yourself. I used Opus 4.5 for most of the implementation. It’s local first and privacy first. MIT licensed.

Let me know what you think

frankensteins··on [Ask Help] Recoll Index Mac Permission Issue
Try to search on recoll.org to see how to grant permission on Mac. So little information on the website.

The indexing process ask permission for each directory. It's getting so annoying. Need help.

I was wrong here.
frankensteins··on Testing multiple Python versions with nox and pyenv
My current system is using Python3.11

For virtualenv, you can create python3.10 using

virtualenv SOME_PY_ENV_NAME -p python3.10

This is the result:

which python3 /Users/user_name/tmp/SOME_PY_ENV_NAME/bin/python3 python3 --version Python 3.10.10

I've been using Logitech K760 for a long time. Haven't felt the need to update a new one yet. Unfortunately, the keyboard is discontinued.
frankensteins··on Plotext – Python Plotting on the Terminal
For me, this is a good alternative to matplotlib when I try to visualize a plot using WSL.

[edit]: matplotlib always crashed on me and failed to find Qt library.

frankensteins··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2019)

frankensteins··on Ask HN: Any good examples of learning through games/puzzles, for adults?
This is a good one. I was going to post it. It's good that I checked before I duplicate the same content.
frankensteins··on What are good linux laptops for 2018?
Here's my experience. If you develop everything locally, get a decent laptop with Ubuntu or Windows 10 Pro.

Windows 10 Pro Edition comes with WSL, a Linux subsystem which is pretty decent for my deep learning implementation and small scale test. With Xming, I can do some visualization as well. There will be downsides. If you get a laptop that just comes with Ubuntu or any Linux distro, you are good to go.

If your development is cloud based, Google is push Chrome OS into a Linux friendly direction. Chromebooks are pretty good choices, price-wise, functionality-wise and portability-wise, you name it. At the time of writing (July 20s, 2018), Pixelbook and a few more Chromebooks receive the support of Linux container. More will be supported.
